Madonna in Israel!

September 1, 2009

Madonna has begun her visit to the Holy Land with a spiritual touch. She headed to Jerusalem's Old City late last night where she toured an ancient Jewish tunnel near the Western Wall - the holiest site at which Jews can pray.

Madonna has chosen to perform the final two concerts of her world tour in Israel, a country she says she has great affection for. It will be her first performance in Israel since 1993, though she came on private visits to Israel in 2004 and 2007.

Madonna will meet Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and also the opposition leader.
